This paper is devoted to the systematic study of some qualitative properties of solutions of a nonautonomous nonlinear delay equation, which can be utilized to model single population growths. Various results on the boundedness and oscillatory behavior of solutions are presented. A detailed analysis of the global existence of periodic solutions for the corresponding autonomous nonlinear delay equation is given. Moreover, sufficient conditions are obtained for the solutions to tend to the unique positive equilibrium.
